A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory, wherein the processor and the memory are communicably coupled,
- wherein the processor:
- determines an event of a vehicle that consumes a required amount of energy greater than a first threshold;
- provides, by a removable auxiliary battery of the vehicle, at least a portion of the required amount of energy during the event;
- and
- provides, by a core battery of the vehicle, a second amount of energy upon completion of the event.
